Zero Emission Engine

With the increase in vehicles plying on roads, the emission of harmful gasses is considerably rising. In order to address the rising level, several BS norms have been introduced in India. The latest being the BSVI engine standards have set a new benchmark for the vehicular emissions. The introduction of this has not only promoted a cleaner environment but also made the vehicle function in a more efficient manner. In this blog, you will come across the potential of BSVI engines and its impact. Reduced emission limits BS VI engines massively cut down on the emission release, the sulfur concentration of this engine is five times more than that of the previously used engines that makes them competitively cleaner. The engine reduces harmful emissions such as Nitrogen oxides (NOx), particulate matter (PM), hydrocarbons (HC) promoting a greener environment. Advanced exhaust gas after treatment system In order to meet the stringent emission standards, the BS VI engines are equipped with ...

If you are the owner of an excavator , you must know the importance of maintaining the different parts of the equipment, including the engine. The engine mainly powers the heavy-duty vehicle, generating power and torque, which help these massive diggers make their way through layers of soil, mud, and rocks. However, excavator engines need to be properly maintained in order to expect the best service. Get the air filters replaced periodically Make sure you check the engine’s air filters from time to time in order to keep them clean and functioning without any major issues. You can check the manufacturer’s instructions for changing the filters. Observe the coolant levels Every engine has a coolant chamber which keeps the engine temperature balanced. Hence, make sure you check the coolant level of the excavator to avoid overheating. Don’t forget the belts and hoses regularly Excavator engines have belts and hoses that need to be replaced. With time and work done, they get wor...

Coming into effect on April 1, 2020, the Bharat Stage VI norms in India stand as the latest emission norms issued by the Government to control the levels of pollution from vehicles. These come only years after the BS IV norms, which came into effect in 13 countries in the year 2010.   The new BS VI engine comes as a significant improvement over its predecessor, the BS IV engine. Here are some of the major changes in the engines.  Reduced emissions The Bharat Stage VI engine has significantly cut down on the levels of emissions. This includes reducing some of the major pollutants such as nitrogen oxides (NOx), particulate matter (PM), and hydrocarbons (HC) as compared to the BS-IV engine. The engines are integrated with advanced exhaust after-treatment systems such as selective catalytic reduction (SCR), diesel particulate filter (DPF), as well as lean NOx trap (LNT). Improved fuel efficiency Increased fuel efficiency is the most notable improvement in the new BS VI eng...

Most automotive vehicles including both on-highway and off-highway vehicles run on diesel. The engines are designed to operate in extreme conditions and for long hours. It is hence, extremely important for them to function efficiently under all circumstances. Taking the help of advanced technology, these engines have incorporated Electronic Control Module (ECM) to maintain and ensure optimum performance. Importance & Functions Of ECM in Engines Let’s see what is an Electronic Control Module first. It is a crucial component of a diesel engine 's electronic control system in today’s age. This part helps to monitor and control various engine functions to ensure efficient and reliable performance. Here are some key reasons why the ECM is important in engines: Fuel Efficiency  Diesel-run engines are powered by a fuel-injection system, which needs to be accurate and precise in order to reduce fuel wastage. With the implementation of ECM, the fuel injection system can be metered and c...

Gas engines are internal combustion engines that run on natural gas, propane, or other gases. They are generally used in power generation, transportation, and industrial applications. In this blog, we will look over the  gas engines, how they work, and their various usages. How Gas Engines Work: A gas engine operates on the same basic principles as a gasoline engine. It is a four-stroke engine, consisting of an intake stroke, a compression stroke, a power stroke, and an exhaust stroke. However, there are some key differences between the two types of engines. In a gas engine , the fuel-air mixture is ignited by a spark plug. This causes the mixture to quickly combust, driving the piston down and generating power. Because natural gas and propane are gaseous fuels and they require a different fuel delivery system than liquid fuels like gasoline or diesel. The gas is typically delivered to the engine via a pipeline or compressed gas tank. Applications of Gas Engines: Gas engines are us...
